    The vendor that has the GSkill Sniper Sniper F3-1866C9D-16GSR said me that the Serial Number first 8 numbers are 13022100. According to the SN Thread, x100 is Nanya eTT/uTT. eTT and uTT means Effectively Tested or Untested according this, and considering that it is a 1866 MHz kit, I suppose it should be tested, while the untested should be for their value line.

    I don't know a lot about ICs properties, but considering that 8 GB modules are made out of 16 (Double Sided) 4 GBit ICs, and they must be from Nanya, it means that the possible ICs candidates should be...

    (All of these links to the same PDF)
    X8 NT5CB512M8CN-DI/EK/FL (1600/1866/2133 MHz, 1.5V, 78-ball BGA)
    X16 NT5CB256M16CP-DI/EK/FL (1600/1866/2133 MHz, 1.5V, 96-ball BGA)
    X8 NT5CC512M8CN-DI/DIB (1600 MHz, 1.35V, 78-ball BGA)
    X16 NT5CC256M16CP-DI/DIB (1600 MHz, 1.35V, 96-ball BGA)

    However, the Timmings for those doesn't match. GSkill says they are 9-10-9-28, while Nanya claims 13-13-13 for 1866 MHz. I suppose its possible that GSkill do some further binning to guarantee that.

    Been googling around, can't find reviews or anyone mentioning them on forums and the like. I did found that some modules with these ICs were validated to be able to run 1600 MHz @ 1.5V on Richland. Anyone thinks they're worth the faith leap? Seriously. I want to take a decision. Today.
